Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the EPCOS B72530V0400K062 be used as a direct replacement for the Würth Elektronik 82553400?

A: Yes. Both components have identical varistor voltage ratings (68 V nominal), surge current capacity (250 A), energy absorption (2.3 J), and 1210 (3225 Metric) surface mount package specifications. Electrical performance and physical form factor are equivalent.

Q: Are there any differences in regulatory compliance between these parts?

A: No. Both components are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and classified as EAR99 for export purposes. Moisture sensitivity level and tariff classification are identical.

Q: What is the acceptable varistor voltage range for substitution?

A: The varistor voltage must fall within the range of 61.2 V (minimum) to 74.8 V (maximum). Both the original and substitute parts meet this specification at 68 V nominal.

Q: Does the packaging format differ between these components?

A: No. Both parts use identical 1210 (3225 Metric) surface mount MLCV package specifications. PCB layout and assembly processes remain unchanged.

Q: Why is the original Würth Elektronik part listed as obsolete?

A: Product obsolescence is determined by manufacturer discontinuation. The EPCOS - TDK Electronics equivalent provides functional continuity for designs requiring 68 V, 250 A varistor protection in 1210 package format.
